词语用法

v. (动词)

1. drag的基本意思是“拖,拉,拽”,指拖着笨重的东西缓慢艰难地行进,意味着有阻力,也可指使某物在地上拖拉,还可指拖着网、钩等沿河底、湖底等搜索〔打捞〕,用于比喻可表示“劝说某人勉为其难地来〔去〕某处”,引申可指乏味或恼人的事物“进行过久”。

词义辨析

v. (动词)

drag, draw, pull

• 这三个词的共同意思是“拉,拖”。其区别是：
• 首先, draw和pull都指拉向动作者,而drag则指拖向另一地; 其次, drag所拖之物一般较重, pull多为一时突然的动作,而draw则显得从容。例如:
• He drew me to himself.
• 他把我拉到他身边。
• He dragged the piano to the corner of the room.
• 他使劲地把钢琴拖向房间的角落。
• He pulled the door open and rushed out.
• 他把门拉开,冲了出去。

drag out, draw out

• 两者都可作“使…拖得很长”解。drag out侧重于时间的拉长; 而draw out侧重于把事物本身拉长; draw out还有“汲取,草拟”的意思。

drag，draw，pull，haul，tug，tow，jerk

• 这些动词都有“拖、拉”之意。
• drag指沿斜坡而上或水平方向缓慢地拖或拉十分沉重的人或物。作借喻时可指把人硬拉过来。
• draw指将人或物朝出力者的方向拖，不涉及力的大小，含平稳意味，常作借喻用。
• pull最普通用词，包含本组其它各词的一些意思，可指朝各个方向拉，侧重一时或突然拉动的动作。
• haul指用力拖或拉，不涉及方向，多作航海用词。
• tug多指一阵阵地用力拖或拉，但不一定使被拉的人或物移动。
• tow特指用绳子或链条等拖或拉本身无动力或无法使用自身动力的东西。
• jerk指快而突然地拉。
